Paddles

I searched and didn't find anything about this. I'm sure someone will direct me to it if I missed it.

So, paddles! Who, what, when?

I just learned from 'centaur532' that in her chapter the 'moms' give the paddles to the 'daughters'. I thought this was interesting. In my chapter the littles decorated a paddle and gave it to their bigs after initiation.

Because of the negative connotation associated with paddles, some KD chapters now use wooden daggers that are about a foot tall. My chapter used the tradition paddles. Then they came out with ones with a slot for a photo and we used those.

So, how does your chapter do it? Littles to bigs, bigs to littles? Do you have "family" paddles? Have the shapes changed to be more PC? Do you decorate them? When do you exchange them? Or do they stay in the family? Got any photos?
